Testimony from recent missionary Joe Phillips

The mission trip over at the Philippines was an experience that I will most definitely never forget.

Though I’ve always been made aware about the tragedies of poverty, seeing it for myself gave me the opportunity to speak about the realities, and relate it to people in my own country. Though I can’t name a highlight on this trip, the sheer joy received by the locals was quite incredible, even through the struggle, it brings out great purpose. In fact, it was the Spirit of the Philippines that made me consider moving over there. I wasn’t too confronted when I arrived, because I had entered it with that mind frame, it was only when I was on the train back in Perth, when I was confronted
with the huge difference in lifestyles and mannerisms.

The incredible work BFJ puts into this ministry is quite incredible, the lead up from the trip, when we were packing the school bags was a good build up, and gave meaning for when we gave out the bags to the children. My advice for future missionaries is simply, to expect heaps from this trip, but at the same time, don’t expect too much either.
​
I cannot thank Buckets for Jesus enough for the huge opportunity to be able to broaden my
horizons, and I hope that I have a place on the team in future trips.
